TG LAN Overview
TG Lan provides test creation and test-taking across a small or large computer network. Test administrators use a Test Generator client and test takers log in and take tests on a windows-based Tester client.
TG Lan enables various users to access TG simultaneously. A typical scenario might include a test administrator enrolling students on one computer, while an Instructor is checking test scores on another, while Students are taking a test in the computer lab.
Concurrency
Which version of TG Lan you choose will, in part, be defined by the number of concurrent users you estimate will be logged in to your testing system.
We define concurrency as any combinations of admin-level users or test takers, who are logged in to the testing system at any given point in time.
TG Lan can be configured to run under MS Access or Sql. If you anticipate having more than 20 concurrent users, then TG Lan_sql would be our recommended solution.
Who Should Use TG Lan
Ideal for any organization that wishes to manage their test creation and test-taking activities over a Windows LAN or WAN. These activities can take place in a classroom setting or from multiple desktop clients spread throughout the organization.
Installation and System Requirements
TG LAN has a typical server-client installation: the database resides on the server and the TG and Tester clients are installed on individual computers across the network.
TG Lan installations vary based on which database you choose, MS Access or SQL. Options include TG Lan (w/runtime MS Access), or a TG Lan (sql) installation package. The TG Lan (Sql) installation package does not include the database, the customer supplies their own SQL database.
TG LAN installations should be implemented by a network Administrator, or someone familiar with your Network, Server, and Workstation resources.
Detailed installation instructions are available with the download.
Operating System: Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7
XPHardware: Pentium PC (1 GHz or better), 256 MB RAMDisk space: Varies based on which TG/db installation is used
Note: Processor speed, memory, and disk space requirements may be significantly higher when using a large amount of data or media files.
Note: Many factors affect network performance. Always simulate the testing environment as closely as possible in a trial before administering a test.
Online Demos
Guided, online demonstrations are the best way of showcasing TG's capabilities. These scheduled sessions serve as a mini-tutorial and Q & A session. Demos are "broadcast" from our offices using web conferencing technology.
